Looking for some recommendations on Eldrazi tribal commanders. I feel pretty positive that I want Blue and Green as those are ramp and draw colors and Eldrazi are big and I want to draw cards. My next question is, "Is Red or Black necessary to make the deck really thematic?" I've decided that white is totally unnecessary for the deck so I'm left with the question of 2, 3, or 4 colors? I don't want a ruthless deck but I want one that is fun and thematic. What are your suggestions? Thanks for the advice.
I ran 5c Devoid with Karona,the False God at the helm. It was pretty fun. With the new deserts and such makes the mana base pretty solid, and though you said white is useless, Eldrazi Displacer would have words with you about that.
There are plenty of things you can do with it, lots of devoid/eldrazi support to be found, especially Altar of the Brood + scions/spawn
My Roon of the Hidden Realm is eldrazi tribal with blink and processor synergies. Flavor wise I consider Roon the Silver Surfer to the Eldrazi Galactus with the hidden realm being the blind eternities.
If you go into colorless mana (C) requirements it's basically a 4 color manabase, so I would caution against going beyond three colors.
If you don't mind a non-Eldrazi commander and want blue and green look no further Prime Speaker Zegana. Play eldrazi, play her, draw a million cards, play more eldrazi. Sac her and Eldrazi to Greater Good.

A buddy of mine runs Rakdos, Lord of Riots that has slowly morphed into an eldrazi tribal deck.
The deck is pretty much Tim creatures that cost 3 or less, free (or nearly free) burn spells, and big fatties, most of them colorless. A free eldrazi is scary. Two free eldrazi with Cloudstone Curio is a game-winner.
Card advantage is not the same thing as card draw. Something for 2B cannot be strictly worse than something for BBB or 3BB. If you're taking out Swords to Plowshares for Plummet, you're a fool. Stop doing these things!
This, because Cloudstone Curio goes infinite with Titans and you can get a concession from everyone at the table just by cycling an Ulamog in this way.

G and U backing massive mana reserves? I'm already piloting an Eldrazi heavy U/G Deck with Kruphix and it's solid.
